There were fewer and fewer Curse Sect bishops and secondary demons around, and Yang Yu and his men were moving towards the Curse Sect church faster and faster.
All of this was seen by Gaskell Lorente, the Pope of the Cursed Sect.
"Still can't stop them?"
Gaskell Lorente murmured to himself, his high-spirited face filled with sorrow.
The sound of believers chanting spells continued to reach his ears. Gaskell Loren looked at the black pool in front of him. The light from the Saint of the Goddess had completely penetrated into the black pool.
The black water surface was as calm as a mirror, and several dark shadows were swimming underwater, waiting for the door to open.
Yang Yu and the expeditionary team he led were completely beyond Gaskell Loren's expectations.
When [Humility] died, Gaskell Lorente had a bad feeling about him.
And that premonition seemed to be coming true soon.
We have come this far, and we are only one step away.
If Yang Yu had been eliminated at all costs, would the result have been better
No.
Gaskell Lorent came to the conclusion that if he had acted at all costs at that time, he might have been discovered by the Goddess Cult.
From the moment of hunting down the Saint, there was no turning back.
Now it’s too late to talk about whether I regret it or not.
If you want to regret something, you should regret something that happened earlier.
"Mentegru, perhaps, we should have told you our true ideals long ago.
You already know that everything the devil does is just deception, and the devil is not something that can be completely trusted.
We have no choice but to side with the devil.
If you had not chosen to pretend to believe in the devil, and I had not seen through your true thoughts, you would not have chosen to steal the [Gate of the Abyss] and let your daughter destroy it, and our plan could have started long ago.
The fault is mine. I really think that your obsession with your wife has led to you being bewitched by the devil. I think that you are no longer qualified to witness the arrival of the new world with us.
The lamp in my hand cannot illuminate your path. "
Looking at the chandelier in his hand, Gaskell Lorente sighed.
Those who stayed in the church to chant were true believers of the Curse Sect, and all those who were sent out were "devil" believers.
Those followers of the devil should have fallen in the battle with the goddess, but they were wasted in a place like this.
To be honest, even if the true believers of the Curse Cult here are ready to sacrifice at any time, Gaskell Lorente does not want anyone here to sacrifice anymore.
Besides, for every person missing, the ceremony will be delayed a little.
Is there really no way to stop the punitive team
Suddenly, pairs of eyes lit up under the black pool.
A low voice sounded in Gaskell Lorente's ear. It was the whisper of the devil.
"Oh my, it looks like there was some problem with the ritual you used to summon us."
"Lord Baal, as you can see, some powerful bugs have raided our ceremony. The people we sent out are dying in their hands one by one. If this continues, the ceremony may fail."
"Yeah. I do feel that a large number of people died in this city, and the forces we divided out are slowly coming back."
"Lord Baal, what should we do next? We don't have enough manpower to delay them now. Even if we do, they will definitely kill us all and we won't be able to complete the ceremony."
"I know. I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear?"
Gaskell Lorente hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's hear the good news first."
"The good news is that you only need to spend a little time now to open the door that summons us."
"So what's the bad news?"
“Because your rituals are not complete, we cannot all come out.
Among the demon army I command, only three can come out from the door.
You know, some of us demons, if left unchecked, would rather play than fulfill our purpose.
Behemos is that kind of guy.
He was summoned by you once with the help of the [Witch of Disaster], and left a door in the outside world to facilitate his reappearance in the world.
Because he was the one who built the door, he demanded that he be the first in everything. Before, he was always the one who talked to you, causing you to take a lot of detours.
We wanted to use the door he left for himself, increase our magic power, expand the exit in one go, and come into this world.
However, the door was stolen and eventually destroyed.
You can only use other methods to contact us and let us come into this world."
"Only three demons can descend?" Gaskell Lorent frowned.
“I will send my most reliable confidants, who will not be as playful as Behemos.
Three demons are enough to deal with the current situation.
No, two is more than enough.
My suggestion is to send two of my cronies around the world to create chaos, which will buy more time for you and for us.
It was enough to leave one demon to deal with them.
Don't worry about one demon not being powerful enough.
Although only three demons can pass through, we can give you more power through the exit.
I can sense the strength of the invaders outside.
If you have all this power but still cannot repel these invaders, it only shows that your level is too low.
Even if their level is low, with my trusted followers here, you will definitely be able to wipe them out."
Gaskell Lorente lowered his shoulders and asked:
"So, Lord Baal, what is the price for summoning those three demons
I have noticed it to some extent.
If I make this summons, I don’t know how long I’ll have to wait before the door can be reopened.
I have waited a long time and I am not going to wait any longer.”
Baal smiled and said, “Don’t worry!
Just one month.
You don't know it, but we have been waiting for thousands of years.
I can't forget the look of extreme disappointment our Creator had on us.
They sealed us into this world.
At first, I also had doubts about the actions of our Creator.
But later, I thought it over and finally figured out what was going on.
There are demons among us who do not follow the ideas of our Creator.
Because of their reckless behavior, missions failed time and time again.
Ultimately, our Creator is extremely disappointed in us.
Time flies, the days and months pass by, the stars move, and the world has changed dramatically.
Our Creator no longer exists in this world, so repentance is useless.
The only thing we can do now is to complete our mission and completely defeat the hypocritical goddess.
In preparation for that day, I reorganized my demon army, learned to think, and became more cunning.
This time, I will definitely be able to pull the goddess down from the altar."
